Ingredients
  

  • 16 ounces Jiffy Corn muffin mix 2 (8-ounce) boxes
  • ⅔ cup milk
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 15 ounces creamed corn canned
  • 15 ounces sweet corn canned, drained, or use 1 cup thawed frozen corn
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 15 ounces Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies drained
  • 1 ½ cups cheddar cheese grated

Instructions
 

  • Mix the Jiffy corn muffin mix with the eggs and milk in a large mixing bowl then stir in the creamed corn and sweet corn.
  • Next, place half of the corn mixture in a greased 9×13 baking dish.
  • Place the ground beef in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and brown it.
  • Add 1 packet of taco seasoning (plus any water indicated on the package), and simmer until the meat is thoroughly cooked.
  • Mix in the Rotel tomatoes, then transfer the ground beef mixture to a baking dish. Top the ground beef with half the cheddar cheese then sprinkle the remaining corn mixture on top.
  • Now, spread the remaining cheddar cheese on top of your casserole then bake it for about 35-40 minutes at 350 degrees F.
  • Take the casserole out of the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes to set before cutting and serving.
  • Top it with your favorite taco toppings if you like.

Notes

  • Be careful not to overcook: Cornbread will not always brown on top when it is done cooking. Too long in the oven can result in a dry, crumbly mess. Don’t forget to check it once it looks like it’s getting close to being finished.
  • The following toppings are suggested: shredded lettuce, sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, tomatoes, green onions, sliced black olives, taco sauce.
